Got T-Mobile up and running with the $30 prepaid just now. Using Dan's GE ROM from the T-Mobile forum, so not even a TW ROM. Only think I see so far that is iffy is MMS. Got LTE, HSPA+, 3G...service is a bit spotty at the house, but I could see that from the coverage map, and I'd never use it here anyway--FIOS with WiFi (going to get an AC router soon) is way better anyway.

Heh, looks like the MMS went through after all. Just need to test receive...

Edit...cannot find anything that does not work in terms of telecom. MMS, SMS, phone, LTE, HSPA, 3G. Have not been in edge only, and probably won't be for a long time living in a major metro.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
So I tried it all weekend.

One thing I noticed was that I got LTE more solidly by using GSM/WCDMA/LTE setting rather than global. I am wondering if on global the Verizon radio is looking too much for the VZW bands.

Which brings me to another question...what's the risk of flashing a T-Mobile modem. I kind of doubt that the hardware is different at all..why would it be when global radio chipsets have been around for a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brizey:
FYI

I was able to get a cm based ROM working. Just deleted the Verizon stuff from the update script and substituted Verizon's model number for T-Mobile's on T-Mobile's line in the script. Basically, use the gsm blobs instead of the cmra stuff.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bsliv:
I was using T-Mobile on a stock i545 for about a month. The only issue I was having is a No Service message after a reboot but before sending or receiving a phone call. After the call, No Service changed to T-Mobile and everything worked.

I installed Hyperdrive 18.1 using the vzw option and it still works on T-Mobile and I don't get the No Service message until I power down and then repower. A simple reboot retains T-Mobile.

Under Settings, More Networks, Mobile Networks, Network Mode, I have GSM/WCDMA/LTE. But that isn't an option from there. Only Global, LTE/CDMA or GSM/UMTS are options. From the app Advanced Signal Status, Addtional Info, Device Information, LTE/GSM auto (PRL) is selected.

Selecting different combos, I could get LTE, H, H+, even saw an E for a few seconds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] psychophysicist:
Can you get this process to work backwards?

I have a GS4 Active on AT&T. It's unlocked and rooted. Can I use a Verizon SIM on it? So far it's not working, no call, no data. Is there a way to get this to work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lucat00:
are you able to set a new APN with tmobile settings?.. does it give you any errors?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] steveb4949:
Still confused GS4 from Verizon to AT&T

First I am a user of phones. I have never rooted one flashed one loaded a different ROM on one or whatever. I just want them to work :). So while I have never done that I am willing to try to get this to work.

I have a Galaxy S4 from Verizon. I switched to AT&T a while back and got new phones when I switched. THis Verizon phone has been sitting in my desk for the past several months. My daughter has basically smashed her iPhone 5c. It still works, but I am worried that eventually it will die. I would like to get this Galaxy S4 working on AT&T to replace her phone. I have read this forum and this particular thread, and it seems a bit confusing.

I have taken the former Verizon Galaxy S4 to the Verizon retail outlet and they have assured me that it is not locked. I then took the phone to the AT&T Corporate Service Center. They put in an AT&T SIM Card but the phone will not activate on AT&T. I get an error message that says... Phone Activation - The SIM card is from an unknown source and if I got to Settings > Connections > More Networks > Mobile Networks > Network Mode and set it to GSM / UMTS, and then manually select AT&T I get an error... No Network. Selected Network (AT&) Not Availalbe

The S4 is a model # SCH-I545

Android 4.4.2

Baseband Version I545VRUFNC5

What steps would I follow to get this phone working on AT&T?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brandogg:
Could just be something wrong with the phone, you shouldn't have to change to GSM/UMTS, Global should work just fine for AT&T.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheLoonyRebel:
I posted this in the Q&A a few weeks ago but seems like it's been lost over there so maybe someone on this side of things could help me...

So I recently moved an VZW S4 over to AT&T Go for a friend. So far everything is mostly working fine running Eclipse v4.0.2 ROM (VZW ROM) which is KitKat 4.4.2 based. But I am wondering on a few things here as even on global mode with the AT&T Go APN's inserted at best we're both seeing HSPA+ but most of the time it's staying on 3G connection. Text and phone are working fine.

1 ) Should I swap out the NC5 modem for an AT&T one?

2 ) Should I swap out to some kind of AT&T ROM like the Safestrap version of the S4 Google Edition ROM?

Any input would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.

Wrong Baseband Version - HELP?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My baseband version is: I545VRUGOF1. At this time, is there a way to root my phone as you describe so that I can take my phone from Verizon to T-Mobile? If not, is there a way to re-flash the phone to the baseband that you mention so that I can switch to T-Mobile, use the Darth Stalker ROM & have everything functional?

Thank you,

Ron Henderson

Just download, rename your current hangouts to Hangouts.apk.bak, and copy the new one over and set permissions.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] LaDY Vengeance:
When you download the zip file extract it. Next take out the battery and make sure device manager is up.

Plug in the phone without the battery. This is tricky... You need to double click on the new device and install the OMAP fastboot drivers located inside the extracted folder.

Now you know how to enter fastboot! Take out the battery, run start, plug in the phone when prompted, then flash ICS u and x.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mastersey:
Hi,

Since some ... weeks, maybe months, my Nexus 4 usb don't works. (I found "Airdroid" app to transfer files over my WiFi but... the problem is somewhere else...)

Only the battery charging works with the usb. I can't use MTP transfer file or ADB !!!

I tried to check/uncheck the MTP option, check/uncheck the option for USB debug mode, tried on other computers/systems, with different usb cable... nothing worked.

The problem is that i flashed a 4.4 ROM (with no SuperSU, so no root...), and i don't know why: I lost my cwm recovery... So now, i can't root/flash a new recovery or ROM because i can't use ADB via the fastboot mode too. :crying::crying:

I tried a lot of things, made a lot of searches all over the web, with no success :/ I hope my usb isn't physically dead ? (have to buy this ?)

What can i do ? Any idea ? :confused:

I don't want to stay blocked with this ROM/kernel/radio with no root for ever :( :( please !

[General Topics] caswell:
Thanks for the reply... I have that program as well... It does in fact work pretty good... Seems the first version I had came with a few bugs like not reporting the time correctly when I would copy messages back onto my device and not transferring the body of "sent" sms message.. but I got the newest build and it seems to have sorted those issues out.

I also went on to their forum and they don't seem to be supporting the product any longer... at least that's how it seems from their lack of answers to questions people have had lately... (Since June or July I think)

I would still really like to send a copy to my gmail account for archival purposes... if anything a little macro that automatically creates a copy and puts it in my email inbox which I can send manually later...

I know it's a bit of an unorthodox request... but it sure would be nice to have it backed up in real time and on a server somewhere...

Thank you for the suggestion though... I do appreciate it.

Sys-Values explanation;

Let me explain some of this features a little bit. 3.0.8 offers completely new opportunities to do some magic stuff.

One thing i developed a while back ago is a dynamic writeback driver with a sys-interface. It uses the earlysuspend kernel api

to flush dirty pages more frequent when in suspend, while display is on it avoids it to give a more fluid user interface.

Can be controlled via the following command;

Also new; a basic display driver! As i tried to fix some things in our dss driver i noticed that we have different panel configurations.One is for all defy green and one for defy red lense users. I exposed those values to user space so that they can be changed. The

new default one are those, which are used on the red lense defy. In theory there could be 256 values (0-255), however could only find the

following as useful. This is not the final gamma control i wanted to have, but at least it gives some control. If someone knows the proper

addresses for gamma values, i can add them too :)

In order to run 4.4 more fluid, google made a guide and also published some recommended patches. One of them let you change

the VM's behavior to have a minimum amount of free memory. Also controllable over a interface;

8192 means 8 MB of free ram (in any case).

[MENTION=513620]Quarx[/MENTION] [MENTION=4855459]Blechd0se[/MENTION] About the camera... Quarx, you asked in a post somewhere about our opinions on whether you guys should try to set it up with an open-source driver or with the old Moto driver. Maybe you could tell us what would be the advantages and disadvantages of which one and we could even vote if you want us to? :D

I'm guessing that we could get more out of the camera with an open-source driver, but it would be harder to set-up than the Moto driver?
[Defy Android Development] mariosanoguera:
its a 5mp camera, so we should go for the old moto drivers, easiest stuff to do right? :p
[Defy Android Development] frullewulle:
Once it works with open source driver for camera, free forever...
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
I shouted "YES!!" out loud when I saw the commit about headset and microphone fixes! :D *edit* But the call speaker maybe isn't fixed just yet :/ Still, gotta try the new build when it shows up ^_^

(that's this one - https://github.com/Quarx2k/android_...mmit/8f5a44ca04ba1c005cb1ac2409639b62f6260d4e )

Combined with Blechd0se's stability fixes (especially this one that fixes the "deep sleep death" - https://github.com/Quarx2k/jordan-kernel/commit/f6b6de228a09f46ab7d6eff70f9225f88e7d3515 ) the next build is going to be very usable imho :)
[Defy Android Development] Blechd0se:
Yes Quarx is doing a very good job here, still struggling with a last few bugs. Anyway, its progress! Also the huge battery drain should be fixed,

i disabled kmemleak. 3.0 is such a nice base to work with, no need to do hacky things, it just works out of the box.

Next version will have timer_slack controller (its working perfectly). Also many fixes for crashes and memory leaks.

One big thing is still the display. Although wakeup delay is gone for me, dss/pvr crashes sometimes. Its very random.

Also overclocking has two sides; on the one side its much easier to understand, on the other side it doesn't work as expected (can't overclock

to 1200mhz for example). But we have finally a nice voltage/frequency table.
[Defy Android Development] matiasrey:
Glad to read the good news, doesn´t seem too far from a usable kernel!

Have you decided what camera drivers you´ll go for?
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
F* yeah! :D "isl29030: fix reboot of proximity sensor" commit signed off by Blechd0se :)

Tried the yesterday build on a DEFY+ without a SIM card. It kept trying to connect to network even though there was no SIM card which made the phone very slow, but it still didn't reboot. I guess this is a known bug, [MENTION=513620]Quarx[/MENTION]?

Then booted it with a SIM card and it worked well :) Although it did became slow after going through a couple of apps... Memory leaks? Or maybe it was because I started the camera. Didn't try taking pictures, though, just looked at the preview :)

Overall, this is very promising and I salute Quarx for his effort!
[Defy Android Development] Fight4Music:
Did the preview work for you [MENTION=4442286]niksy+[/MENTION]?
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
Yes it did :) The colours were fine, although everything seemed a bit dark... Maybe it was just my lighting conditions, though :D The preview worked fine but I didn't try taking pictures, thinking it would freeze the device or reboot it.

I've got 2 DEFY+'s for myself now, my bro replaced his for a RAZR i. So I'll be keeping up with the latest 3.0.8 builds on the secondary one, just need to find some SIM card for it :cowboy:
